OS Data Hub APIs OS Features API removal

Deprecated, no dateSubscribe to OS Data Hub APIsShare

The OS Features API has been deprecated without a specific shutdown date, though it is anticipated to reach end of life in summer 2030 and be retired. This change affects all calls to /features/v1/*, which will eventually fail. Developers should prepare for these endpoints to be removed.


Calls it hits

  • /features/v1/*

What to use instead of these calls

Move to OS NGD API Features. The transition requires planning because the replacement serves OS NGD collections instead of the older WFS feature types.

OS NGD API – Features serves OS NGD collections instead of the WFS feature types, a migration to plan.

In OS Data Hub APIs's words

OS Features API is anticipated to reach End of Life in summer 2030 and will be retired.
